Argh I'm trying to find a snow glow elsa in stock but they appear to be oos everywhere! Does anyone know anywhere that has them?

I'm looking for a snow glow elsa too.

personalised facecloths I think this is them cleanandclothed though not on offer this year.

Smyths are getting the back in on the 21st November.

I (hopefully as long as it doesn't dispatch for some reason) got a snow glow elsa yesterday with the help of this site:

You need to be very fast when it comes up though! (turn the audio option on and leave open in different tab)

Theonly, thanks for the Tesco code. Am very tempted at that price to sign up as I think it would be cheaper than how much I pay them now.

Finally a thread that's not almost over when I find it!

Yo Reastie! And all other lovely bargain threadsters from this year and years gone by...was having total panic this year as thought I wasn't going to be paid until January (freelance) and thinking that even with your bargainous bargains I was still going to be giving everyone half a Satsuma and lo and behold, I've been paid!!!

So here I am, from now until the bitter end.

Spotted you all talking about that fattoria thingy, they still send me a sample or two every so often, which is very kind!

Also see you've had another weirdo being stroppy...;-)

In true ReastieNet style I have lobbed a wombee scarf or 4 into my basket, and just bought sulky teen niece one of those satchels on page 1.

Thanks Reastie.

I'm Really struggling for dh now. He has everything he wants for every interest he has.
I did him a food and beer based hamper last year so don't want to do the same again.

Anyone got any ideas? I bought him the cardboard goggles already.

Thank you notso

I have no plans for a present for DH at all. The only things he would want are £££££, or v specific so he'd just buy them anyway. He is so not the cardboard goggles type. The only thing I might do is book him a falconry experience.

X post about the goggles! (He has the wrong phone)

I thought £15 for unlimited tesco mid week deliveries was too good to miss!

IAlreadyToldYou you just reminded me of the palaver I had last year with those dvds which ended up with me on the phone to amazon on xmas eve asking why they'd been showing as out for delivery for days (they were being delivered to local click and collect at supermarket - my house, said supermarket and depot are all in a mile radius). Amazon assured me they would be delivered on xmas day, I told them they wouldn't be as said supermarket would be closed and what courier delivers on xmas day but the amazon man got quite argumentative with me about it and assured me they would be there... about 11 pm on xmas eve they cancelled my order by email... 2 weeks later I got an email to say the courier was returning the dvds as I was unable to take receipt of them... good job they were an extra present I didn’t need. The moral of the story - don't leave amazon orders til the week before Xmas even if you do pay for quicker delivery!

Two of my amazon 4-for-£10 books are currently unavailable and do I want to cancel my order, say Amazon. Trouble is if I do that, the two they have delivered will end up costing me more.

Primark had some bits reduced today
Christmas mugs santa or penguin reduced to £2
Lots of boys t shirts £1/£2
Boys cars or spiderman lunch bags £3
Girls purses various designs £1
One direction pyjama's reduced from £10 to £5

Thanks Mrs Fox, I have booked him one.

Oh, a new thread.

Does anyone know if there are any Christmas delivery slots yet for any supermarkets? I always seem to miss out.

In case anyone missed it on the last thread - Flaviar lovely booze £10 off with this link I get credits when you use it too.
They have some very nice bottles, and the tasting packs I bought were fab.

Hope this link works. Just got this for hard to buy for DH, it's a behind the scenes tour of Silverstone race track (where the British Grand Prix is held) for two for £40 plus p&p, says it's reduced from £60.

:)

Hi everyone this is the message I received from Topcashback after following link on here, just in case anyone else uses it

It does state on the TCB page for this offer "2 Disney DVDs for FREE after cashback - New and Selected Member Deal is only available for selected Existing Members (Members who have signed up to TopCashback before the campaign start date) who have no previous purchases through TopCashback and/or who have received the 2 Disney DVDs for FREE after cashback - New and Selected Member Deal via email communication directly from TopCashback prior to the closing date"

And this can be seen here - www.topcashback.co.uk/2-free-disney-dvds-new-member-deal/

Therefore as you are not a new member or did not receive the email, unfortunately you are not eligible for cash back.

I can't return them either as Zavvi is a 2 week only for returns

Thats the chance you take with cash back I'm afraid

Thanks for that site endless. I've signed up for the stock alerts for snow glow elsa and sparkle doll elsa. Luckily I'm in all day so I can just leave the laptop on.

Really torn about that silver stone experience thing, dp would love it, but two years ago I got him an experience thing and it expired and he didn't use it... :/
